My images are available as Fine Art Giclée Prints, printed on premium German Etching paper 310 gsm, from Hahnemühle, in limited editions of 3 (sizes vary depending on specific image and on the aspect ratio of the original).
My prints are produced in Antwerp, Belgium, using a high-resolution, large format Canon iPF printer with 12 lightfast pigment inks, capable of reproducing the full colour spectrum with great precision, creating images with wonderful sharpness and colour depth.
These prints are guaranteed over 100 years as long as the right conditions are maintained, namely the avoidance of exposure of the Artwork to liquids, direct heat, strong humidity or unusual/extreme conditions).
YOUR ARTWORK
All my Fine Art Prints are hand signed, titled, dated and stamped at the back.
Each print comes with a Hahnemühle Certificate of Quality and Authenticity with an Hologram System, certifying the paper quality, the print process used and the uniqueness of the Artwork«
For each print, there is a unique numbered hologram with 2 copies. One copy will be applied to the certificate and the second copy will be placed on the back of the artwork.
Framing or mounting is optional, to be agreed with the purchaser.
Once a print reaches its limit number, all prints are discontinued.
The Certificate of Quality and Authenticity that accompanies your Artwork ensures not only the paper quality and printing process, but also that your Artwork is unique. For each print I have a numbered hologram in duplicate. One of the copies is applied to the certificate and the matching hologram will be placed on the back of the Artwork. This process assures that any given certificate relates to the matching Artwork and certifies its paper quality, production process and uniqueness
What is Giclée printing?
Giclée is a term coined in 1991, taken from the French noun that refers to a spurt of liquid, that was initially used to describe a printing process that employed adapted Iris printers to produce fine art prints.
The process has now become the standard to create high-quality fine arts prints, using various large format ink jet printers to produce reproductions of original two-dimensional artworks, photographs or computer-generated art.
What is Museum Etching paper?
Natural white Hahnemühle Museum Etching is a «(…) cotton artists’ paper with an inkjet coating specially optimised for FineArt printing. This heavyweight textured paper does not contain optical brighteners and is characterised by its high stability. The finely textured surface with fine felt structure lends FineArt prints added depth and a three-dimensional effect. Combined with the pure cotton base, this creates a wonderfully soft tactile feel and artistic impression. The premium matt inkjet coating produces excellent print results. Colours are wonderfully vivid, deep blacks truly stand out and details are reproduced perfectly. The acid- and lignin-free Museum Etching meets the most exacting requirements for age resistance and is ideal for reproducing photographs and works of art.»
